Chapter 349 - 104: Falling into the Trap
Because of the recent kidnapping incident, Lu Hong refrained from letting Anna go shopping alone, even though Qing Ling had assured that she would arrange protection. Nonetheless, Lu Hong insisted on accompanying her, not because he distrusted Qing Ling but because he feared the cunning of their opponent.
This time, failing to succeed, Lu Hong had every reason to believe that Gamma would set up a second trap, waiting for Lu Hong to take the bait.
The bustling and prosperous area of the Seventh Layer remained unchanged, unaffected by the major upheaval at Holy Court or the emergency military measures adopted by the four Dukes.
Anna held Lu Hong’s arm while walking on the street, her face radiating happiness. Having a boyfriend who is willing to go shopping must be something to smile about in one’s dreams, right?
At that moment, in a corner of the plaza on the second level, a crowd had gathered. Anna nudged Lu Hong, "Shall we take a look?"
Lu Hong smiled, "If you want to go, let’s go."
Lu Hong was not very fond of crowds, but since Anna wanted to look, he accompanied her.
They squeezed in and found a man dressed in a robe adorned with stars who appeared very serious, presently predicting the romantic future for a woman.
"Tomorrow you will encounter a fortunate romantic encounter, meeting the love of your life," the young sorcerer said solemnly, "but you must be cautious, if this man proposes to you tomorrow, do not immediately accept."
"Ah?" The woman asked in confusion, "If he is the love of my life, why can’t I accept?"
